Beauty is desirous and irresistible .. but the thought that engulfs me is the fact that beauty is now limited to faces and features. It is not characterised by anything other than surface beauty.. !!
Is it the surface beauty that enchants us all or is it the striking beauty of the inner being that makes us their slave.. !!??
Real Beauty is not only about looking good.. or wearing the right and expensive dresses .. Real beauty is the love and sacrifice of the parents for their children .. real beauty lies in the bond of true friendship and love .. Real beauty is not bound in societal standards and images it is above all this and is REAL in every sense .. !!
It is the purity of the heart and soul which is termed as Real beauty and not the perfect curves on a women's silhouette or the perfect color of the skin . It doesn't make sense to me why would anyone prefer beauty of the looks over the beauty of the heart!!?
For me Beauty lies in the act of goodness , irrespective of the external beauty I would always judge a person based on internal beauty . I do not condemn external beauty but I condemn it's preference over internal beauty. External beauty would fade with time but what remains is the beauty of humanity ..!!
A thing of beauty is a joy for ever
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
-John Keats
These line say it all .. the joy , the sweet dreams.. beauty brings with it all the goodness of life ...!!

nice post....
ReplyDeletei hope everybody sees what's always inside
@Clai ..thanx ..I hope that too :)
ReplyDeleteThis post is saying much about the "inner beauty". But it is always difficult for me to realize what is inner beauty actually. Is it the goodness in behaviour or just innocent inner-self of some one? Is it in our own internal thoughts or something like that? I really can't figure this thing out.
ReplyDeleteMy idea about beauty is that a thing is beautiful if it gives pleasure to senses and is like itself only, unmatched.
Freshness of a morning on a far off hill, voice of Noor Jehan, paintings of Michelangelo, symmetry in things and calmness of lake water. I think that is the idea about real beauty.
Beautyful things gives peace, pleasure, contentedness and inspiration.
@Shazoor .. to some extent yes i agree with your opinion ... but when there is someone who's pure in deeds and yet are not "Aishwarya Rai" for me they truly are beautiful .. !!
ReplyDeletemind you there is a difference in doing good and being simply innocent .. there are many who are innocent yet self centered... are you mesmerized even by such innocence ??
yes beauty is the freshness of a morning hill on a far of hill ... but it also is beauty the way a lady living in a slum keeps her home clean and tidy.. !! does that sight not enchant and touch you ??
Its not always about the pleasure you get .. or the inspiring beauty it is also about the inner self which when no longer seeks its own pleasure becomes the hallmark of the highest form of beauty !!
